Facebook announced on their Q3'17 earnings call that "more than 20 million businesses are communicating with customers through Messenger." And TechCrunch reported back in September that Messenger surpassed 1.3 billion users.
As Facebook looks to deal with max ad load, they finally started to ratchet up monetization efforts on Messenger by introducing different ad types. In our Ultimate Guide to Facebook Messenger Ads , we showed how to create the two most popular types 1) Send People to Messenger (Direction) and 2) Send Sponsored Messages to People on Messenger (Placement) ads.

In a brand new report from AdStage, we took an in-depth look into PPC benchmarks and trends that matter to you and your digital advertising strategy.

Messenger Ads CPCs
We found the majority of advertisers are earning CPCs less than $1.00 with a lot under $0.29. These results make the ad placement enticing for marketers looking to experiment with Messenger Ads.
With Facebook pouring more resources into monetizing the Messenger platform, we predict marketers will be enticed with more ad types and variations in 2018.
